RTÉ warns staff of security threat at headquarters

RTÉ management issued a security warning to staff after a threat aimed at disrupting the Late Late Show. A former employee reportedly planned to block the broadcaster's headquarters with trucks on March 7, just before the show aired. Local police were informed of the potential blockade, which could have caused traffic issues. This was the second threat from the individual in over a week, prompting RTÉ to enhance security measures. A financial dispute may be linked to the threat, as the individual is associated with a haulage firm. Additional security advice has been provided to staff ahead of a planned protest on St. Patrick's Day.
